   > I don't think Uwe's mac vm is an equivalent to these gh runners. I'd like 
to believe gh mac runners are actually on apple hardware while Uwe's is a 
hackintosh. Not that we _ever_ discovered anything interesting up until now - I 
say this because I distinctly remember those mac runners on gh being much 
faster than anything else. It could have been the number of available cores or 
maybe something has changed externally.
   
   I agree, which is why I don't just drop the job, but instead try to reduce 
the frequency of it. These mac runners are a struggle and also have a high 
cost. I don't want to lose test coverage, but a nightly job would really take 
the pressure off, as opposed to invoking these on every PR/push.
   
   The ubuntu one gives us more realistic arm testing (IMO) for search engines 
running on server-side ARM, it is efficient, and that's a real use-case, e.g. 
deploying to the cloud on graviton CPUs and the like. It is a good one for 
every PR.
